Will was a great guide who had energy and a sense of humor as well as excitement and a sense of humor for the Louvre. It was a very fun way to see the museum instead of wandering around hoping to see things!

Crown Jewel Heist!

Stephanie Frazier, 30 October 2025

Early into our tour the crown jewels were stolen! Everyone was safely evacuated. I was pleasantly surprised to see the Tour Guy fully refunded our tickets - without having to even ask. Exceptional service! THANK YOU!
